Hallucinations with Wellbutrin. I was very depressed one night and took 1,000 Mg. All of a sudden I started seeing like little specks that we're merging together and moving around! It was a swarm of little specks. Now get this, I touched the swarm because it wasn't coming after me and they started moving on my hand like ants! I'm NOT making this up. I then was curious and entertained rather than afraid because when I controlled my vision and was AWARE of them, they went away. Now I'm like "What else can I make happen with this Wellbutrin in me." I used to be very interested in Psychedelics, like, 10 years ago. I took any Psychedelic. Bad, I know. Anyway's, I decided to go down stairs into the family room which is right by the kitchen. I could'nt speak right (slurring really bad) and sat on the couch, turned on the T.V and chilled. Everything was moving! i didn't even have to stare at it long enough for it to progress it's form. went back to watching T.V and i started hearing voices! Like actual words! Nobody was home and sounded very close. I'm tripping out hard but retain a positive mental state. I go back to the T.V and not long after, I see, out of the corner of my, a girl sitting at the kitch table. She was in color and i just kept staring ( without looking somewhere else because the hallucination would go away. She Started then vanished. WTF right? I look around and here the voices again. i was freaked out by it so badly but still didn't let fear settle in. I can't recall what the words were but the voices i just talked about was a CONVERSATION WITH A MAN. once again sounding like they we're in the kitchen sounding so close to me. Honestly? I don't remember the rest. :/ but the event I had lasted a whole other 24 hours! That's another story though. Anyway, there you go. If you take enough Wellbutrin this happens. You can definetly hylucinate or however you spell it. Done. Stupidist thing I've ever done. I was acting like a schizophrenic. Peace, and DON't DO THIS. I'm lucky I did'nt have a seizure or worse.

Yeah, a gram of wellbutrin sounds like it could be close to an overdose. You'll hallucinate if you get to that level with almost any psychoactive drug. Not that surprising really.

Also, I find it interesting that you would take a large amount of wellbutrin one night because you felt extra depressed. That's not how the drug works, nor does any marketed anti-depressant work that way; there isn't an instantaneous effect. It takes weeks of a strict regimen for it to kick in. If that's not working, then I would ask your doctor to switch you on to a different medication.
 
Thank you for the kind reply and information. I'm going to give the 150mg twice a day more time. it's been 24 days. I'll consider seeing my doctor but not before giving it one more month. and DEFINITELY wont take more again. I don't want brain damage or schizophrenia. Thank's again. Peace
 
I've used Wellbutrin twice for couple months each. It is a great antidepressant which does not have all the horrible (sometimes permanent) side effects that can be encountered with SSRIs and some TCAs. It gives good amount of energy, improves concentration, gets you to get out and do things. Who knew that being more social, more interested in doing things would help depression?! Well, who doesn't, but getting your depressed ass out to do such things can be pretty hard, and Wellbutrin kinda makes you want to engage with things. Highly recommended in case of depression.

That aside though, it is very very foolish to take antidepressants inconsistently. Most of them start working their antidepressant effects in couple weeks, so what you'd only get in the first week or two are usually the side effects. Also it is very very very foolish to take about three-four times the usual prescribed dose in one day. Wellbutrin is one of the anti-depressants that shows its effects very rapidly, but still, it is not like you feel the blues one day and take it and that'd make things good.
 
Thank you everyone for the replies and at the very least helping me realize I'm not the only one who had that experience. How stupid was I to think taking that much of an Anti Depressant wouldn't have any bad side effects?! I actually ended up having a seizure 2 days later and brought to the ER! I was eating dinner with my parents (Thank God they were there) and then got up, went to the fridge and don't remember ANYTHING until I was half way to the hospital, on a gurney in the back of an ambulance. My mom was quick enough to catch my head but I have bruises and almost cut my little toe off having it lodged under the fridge. I COULD HAVE DIED!!! I'm quite ashamed of myself. I hope this helps/helped somebody who has thought of or is thinking of taking anti depressants to hallucinate or get messed up. Wow...what an eye opener. I don't want to imagine what would have happened had I been by myself...
 
Wow glad you're okay man

Any kiddos reading this be sure to catch rufios last post before scarfing down your bottle of meds! (serious shit)

Of course you get the gist all the other posts, but I will third the notion...Do Not Up the Dose of Any anti depressants as a Quick Fix! Neuropsychology and human physiology is not so simple as a stair case climbable with drugs to the altitude of peace of mind we seek...drug interactions are very precise and the dose– response curve is not ever consistent.
